The pull request process is unqiue to github.

It is basically a front end for the github server doing some merging on your 
behalf. If you click the correct link in github it will show you the commands 
to grab the pull request into your local computer (which you would want to do 
to run test cases yourself etc…). This sequence of commands is similar to the 
steps the server takes when you approve a pull request.

Indeed if you perform the manual steps locally, and then push the result up to 
the server github will notice you have accepted the pull request and 
automatically close it for you.
